项目摘要
With support from the Improving Undergraduate STEM Education: Hispanic-Serving Institutions (HSI Program), this Track 1 project aims to provide a greater understanding of the impact of family support on outcomes for STEM majors, particularly from underrepresented groups (URGs). We hypothesize that the proposed project will contribute to the development of a diverse workforce by exposing URGs to real-world STEM problems through successful cross-sector partnerships with corporations and organizations. With this project, which deeply involves faculty and students’ families, we will investigate how cultural and social networks created from cross-sector partners support student success. We will examine how to form meaningful partnerships between faculty research mentors, external internship supervisors, and families to support student retention in STEM academic programs and sense of belonging in STEM careers. The findings will be disseminated and guide other institutions in best practices in involving families in STEM students’ academic and professional activities. Improving the outcomes of URG students in STEM is essential as the need for STEM professionals will continue to increase and diverse workforces are more creative and more productive. To improve sense of inclusion, we place students on diverse teams. Most research and innovation in STEM is conducted by teams, which have been proven to have better problem-solving skills when diverse. Institutions of higher education, including HSIs, will benefit from tools that result in optimal outcomes for URG STEM majors.Developing a new framework for promoting success among URGs in STEM fields may well change the trajectory for successful outcomes for students. Understanding what changes to make to the framework is essential. Our work will contribute to this understanding. This project will use surveys, focus groups, and interviews to study how cultural and social norms among Hispanic populations promote or inhibit student interest in specific career pathways, and if, or how, family norms support (or detract from) student persistence and graduation. A new STEM family survey instrument will be developed, validated and disseminated. The findings will reveal best practices in balancing any STEM-negative influences, educating families on STEM and STEM careers, and involving family members in students’ academic and professional trajectories. The Bureau of Labor Statistics (2015) data tells us that URGs are underrepresented in STEM fields. Further, demand for individuals in STEM career pathways continues to grow. This project will help guide and inform institutions of higher education in the design of programs that build on the enrollment gains from URGs and support students to persist, graduate, and enter STEM fields. Research into strategies that support improved persistence and graduation rates are essential to satisfying the unmet demand for STEM-focused, trained professionals. The HSI Program aims to enhance undergraduate STEM education and build capacity at HSIs. Projects supported by the HSI Program will also generate new knowledge on how to achieve these aims.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
在改善本科STEM教育的支持下:西班牙裔服务机构(HSI计划),这个轨道1项目旨在更好地了解家庭支持对STEM专业成果的影响,特别是来自代表性不足的群体(URG)。我们假设,拟议的项目将有助于发展多元化的劳动力,通过与企业和组织成功的跨部门合作伙伴关系,使URG暴露于现实世界的STEM问题。通过这个深入涉及教师和学生家庭的项目,我们将调查跨部门合作伙伴创建的文化和社交网络如何支持学生的成功。我们将研究如何形成教师研究导师,外部实习主管和家庭之间有意义的伙伴关系,以支持学生保留在干学术课程和归属感在干职业。调查结果将得到传播,并指导其他机构在让家庭参与STEM学生的学术和专业活动方面采取最佳做法。提高URG学生在STEM方面的成绩至关重要,因为对STEM专业人员的需求将继续增加,多样化的劳动力更具创造力和生产力。为了提高包容感,我们把学生放在不同的团队。STEM领域的大多数研究和创新都是由团队进行的,事实证明,团队在多元化的情况下具有更好的解决问题能力。高等教育机构,包括HSIs,将受益于为URG STEM专业带来最佳成果的工具。开发一个新的框架,促进URG在STEM领域的成功,很可能会改变学生成功成果的轨迹。了解对框架进行哪些更改至关重要。我们的工作将有助于这一理解。该项目将使用调查,焦点小组和访谈来研究西班牙裔人口中的文化和社会规范如何促进或抑制学生对特定职业道路的兴趣,以及家庭规范是否或如何支持(或减损)学生的坚持和毕业。将开发、验证和传播一个新的STEM家庭调查工具。调查结果将揭示平衡STEM负面影响、对家庭进行STEM和STEM职业教育以及让家庭成员参与学生学术和职业轨迹的最佳实践。劳工统计局(2015年)的数据告诉我们,URG在STEM领域的代表性不足。此外,对STEM职业途径的个人需求继续增长。该项目将帮助指导和通知高等教育机构设计基于URG入学收益的课程,并支持学生坚持,毕业和进入STEM领域。研究支持提高持久性和毕业率的战略对于满足对以STEM为重点的训练有素的专业人员的未满足需求至关重要。HSI计划旨在加强本科STEM教育,并建立HSI的能力。HSI计划支持的项目也将产生关于如何实现这些目标的新知识。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命,并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估,被认为值得支持。
